What Arthur got for Christmas
This chapter starts out with a few prank gifts by his parents. Which makes Arthur sadder than he was. He is showing when Arthur is opening his presents in the part between DW opening her's and dinner time. This is not like chapter one since because it has prank gifts in a few of them. We see him opening his first one now. It was a game for little kids.
"A game for, little kids?" said Arthur, 'Why mom?"
"It, is just a prank," said Mrs. Read, "I, did get stuff you asked for."
Arthur opened in was a box. He opened it saw it was nothing. Just an empty box. Arthur is starting to cry again. He hates pranks. He wonders why they are doing that to him. He never pulled pranks of them. He opened his third it was coal. He is both sad and mad now. Even though he got all the stuff he asked for. The pranks was bad after all.
"Mom and dad why, did you prank me?" said Arthur, 'I never played one on you."
"Just, felt like it that is all," said Mrs. Read, "You, got the things you asked for."
"Still i didn't like them," said Arthur, "I hate pranks."
"Same here," said DW, "That, was not good."
"That was wrong, of you to do them," said Thora, "Pranks are bad."
"Dear, that was wrong of us," said David Read, "We shouldn't have done that to him."
Them two are now sad. They played a prank on him making him resent them. He lost his trust in them. They have done wrong. They decided to apologize to him to see if they will forgive them.
"We are, sorry for that Honey," said Mrs. Read, "Just pranks, that is all."
"Well you didn't accept mine," said Arthur, "For, what Buster did."
"Oh yeah that," said Mrs. Read, 'Sorry, for that and other things."
"Yes, it wasn't you fault," said Mr. Read, "You, was the victim after all."
Arthur forgave them. It was Christmas after all. See what happens next chapter.
